Add-on URGENT Exclude usergroup/s from memberlist

[Morgain]

I urgently need to be able to exclude selected usergroups from the memberlist NOT relying on the Banned usergroup.

These are functional but restricted members but their communication is only with admins not other members.
They have View permissions generally (in some areas only) and permission to post in their own forum where admins respond to support.

But I cannot set this up if they appear on the frontend memberlist.
Please help.

This is quite straight forward if you're happy doing a template edit?

To confirm: You want to stop one or more usergroups from appearing in the member list?

Template: member_list

Find:

<ol class="section memberList">
	<xen:foreach loop="$users" value="$user">
		<xen:include template="member_list_item">
			<xen:set var="$noOverlay">1</xen:set>
		</xen:include>
	</xen:foreach>
</ol>

Replace with:

<ol class="section memberList">
	<xen:foreach loop="$users" value="$user">
		<xen:if is="!{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, 3, 4}">
			<xen:include template="member_list_item">
				<xen:set var="$noOverlay">1</xen:set>
			</xen:include>
		</xen:if>
	</xen:foreach>
</ol>

This means that if the member is a member of usergroup IDs 3 or 4, they will not appear in the list.

You could, actually, also be a bit more advanced and say: If member is a member of usergroup IDs 3 or 4 they can see ONLY staff in the list

Template: member_list
CODE
This means that if the member is a member of usergroup IDs 3 or 4, they will not appear in the list.

Chris I never thanked you for this. Exactly what I need
Sorry no response. Have been very ill this week so head foggy.

I now want to put a list of staff on another page, displayed in memberlist style.

I've gone over the snippet Chris gave me here and i can see it targets the selected usergroups in the added line
but I don't understand how it commands NOT to display them
so I don't know how to make it command ONLY the usergroups I want to display on this new page.

 

[Chris D]

It commands NOT to display them via the ! operator.

If is NOT member of usergroup 3 or 4:

<xen:if is="!{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, 3, 4}">

If is member of usergroup 3 or 4:

<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, 3, 4}">

Oh magic thank you Chris

Chris I tried adding it ust now to exclude and I'm getting an error

<ol class="section memberList">
<xen:foreach loop="$users" value="$user">
<xen:comment>SHAN EXCLUDE CONSULTS</xen:comment>
<xen:if is="!{xen:helper ismemberof, $user, 24}">
<xen:include template="member_list_item">
<xen:set var="$noOverlay">1</xen:set>
</xen:include>
</xen:foreach>
</xen:if>
</ol>

 

[Morgain]

I already have a control at the top to exclude unregistered could that be it?

<!-- hide from unreg -->
<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}">

But I tried removing that and it made no difference.

 

[Chris D]

What's the error? And where are you putting the code?

Er - I did it again to find the error and it worked beautifully.
It's those mushrooms I had for supper because my name isn't Alice.

I can't get this to work properly. It filters out the users, but it doesn't correct the total number of pages in the pagenav. It just shows less users per page.

Is there an easy way to correct that?

Will probably require an addon.

This was very helpful, I need to exclude the same usergroups from the notable memberlist now, the code above works only in the full memberlist. anyone knows how can I achieve this?

 

[Chris D]

Should be very similar to the notable members list.
